0c dltIIIltIIg biS''N'' VI luS country is nervous d, ''!-iity and prostration. It gocs under many names but 1t Is essen- tially the same complaint. Hospitals and private institu- tions for nervous patients are crowded. The average of life in the United Sta'"a is de- crcasing every year. Sudd n deaths from nervous collapse among our business, profess ional and public men are so frequent as scarcely to excite remark. The majority of sui cides, committed Without ap- parent reason, or undersO-called "depression of spirits" are really prompted by nervous prostration, which is a fruitful source of insanity and crime with all their grief and horror.
 These facts are startling. They threaten the very life of the nation. They assail the springs of it's power and pros perity, They wreck manhood's strength and wolnnn's useful ness and beauty.
 Every one should know the causes. What are thcy! The answer is easy and terribly plain: Our vicious personal habits; our careless and lawless eating and drinking; the in. tense mental and physical strain arising from our mad race after money, position and influence; the fears and struggles of pov. erty; the use of narcotics and stimulants; our fashion of turning day into night and night into day; aid, briefly, our desperate willingness to pay any price for an hours pleasure or success. So We burn life's candle at both ends and fill the lunatic asylums and the graveyards.
 The disease from which we suffer and die is, in plain Eng fish, Nervous Dysl'ps'o, as it Is seated in the Nerves and in the organs of Digestion, Asslm- ilation and Nutrition Healthy digestion being impt led or dcs- troyed, the whole l"ay, nerves included, is l,'te,oNY starucd; even when there i' no emaci- ation to tell the sad tory.
 Nervous prost on sends out it's warning,: :--hendache

 The remedy Is a total aban- donmenl of the habits and cus- toms which cause the disease in each individual case, and the use of .>boler I,..iroct of Roots (Scigels Sylnp> to cure the mischief n, >aty done. This great remedy, prepared by the Shaker N'mn.nnnity oi Mt. Leb- anon, N. N., is espcc'"ily adapt ed to eradicate Nervous Dys- pepsia. To do tlls 1t acts directly ana ,rntly but power fully upon the rr'rrrd stom. ach, liver and ki 'ys, restor- ing their tone and vi"or pro- noting the secretion o' pile, ex- polling waste matters rom the system, ,anu purifying ne blood.
 Upon the nervous system Shaker E.cty,ct(Seieel'sSyrup) acts as n safe and wholesome anodyne without the slightest narcotic effect, and then leaves the nerves to regain their nat. ural tone and strength through it's wonderful influence upon the function of nutrition.
 It is safe to say more nerv. ous dyspeptics have been re- stored by it from the depths of misery to a fresh enjoyment of life and labor than by any or all other forms of treatment combined. ...
